The following patches update cpuinfo to print SoC model name for ARM. The first patch exactly makes needed changes for ARM architecture and adds a common approach to show SoC name. Second patch uses this approach for OMAP4 SoCs (as live example). Looks like there were few attempts to do similar changes to cpuinfo without any luck (had stuck on review) so this functionality is still not in the kernel yet. In this patch series the update to cpuinfo is very short (10 lines) and easy. Comments are welcome as usual
As most of the people already commented, your purpose behind the series isn't clear so please give examples where and why you need device type information from user-space.
